Edo Traveler

v7 Chapter 34: The army is hungry and cold

After running with the army for two days, Chuemon and others finally arrived at the Uraga Magistrate. There was no problem on the first day and this morning. The army ate rice **** bought from Edo.

Edo is good at this point. As long as you have money, everything will be ready for you immediately. It's only April anyway, the weather is not too hot, and even if the rice **** are left overnight, they won't be bad at all. The soldiers bought enough rice **** for three meals in Edo before they left, and they had plenty of money.

There is no problem with the rest on the road. I walked on the Sanqin street where the princes came to Edo. There are more than 1,000 people in the dojo on the road. There are more than 3,000 vassals such as Maeda Masato and Shimazu Shigeho. The ranks still live under. He even prepared a warm dinner for the army, with soup and water.

This may be the only advantage of marching in the country. As long as you are around the avenue, supplies and accommodation are easy to solve. As long as you are willing to pay for the money, some are service personnel.

When the army sat down messily in the square in front of the Uraga office, waiting for the salt rice **** sent by the local organization people, Toda Shiei slowly moved out with a face in tears.

"According to the general imperial order, Matsudaira Akashi Hou reassigns, the imperial imperial foreign minister, the transfer team Obanto Edogawa Hyuga Mori Tadada, today led a staff of 1,700 strangers to the battle, please take care of the board and lodging! "

Chuemon leaped down from the horse and walked towards Toda Shiei who was surrounded by more than a dozen samurai. There are not many samurai in Uraga. The only one who can be surrounded by samurai is to practice the Toda clan.

"Excuse me, but Uraga obeys Toda-sama in person?" Although I guessed it a long time ago, I still have to ask.

"This official...this official is Toda Shirong." Toda Shirong did not know why, but he was a little twisted.

When two big men meet, they are not little children, so embarrassed, what are they going to do? Chuemon bowed his head to salute Toda Clan, his brain made up.

"Please also Master Toda to take care of the board and lodging!" It's over for him, as long as he sends 10,000 rice **** from the training team first, and arranges for the soldiers to stay at a nearby farmhouse for two days.

The tents and things were all in the group behind Songping Qixuan, and the Chuanxi team ran all the way. Except for a piece of clothing, and a handgun ammunition, there is nothing left.

In fact, you may not need as many quilts and blankets. As long as you borrow a room from the people’s house, you have a place to protect you from wind and rain, and then spread straws, and a fire will start in the fire, and you can make it through overnight. The point is that people have to be full, and everything is fine when they are full.

"You can see, Uraga's side, there is nothing..." Toda Shirong looked around.

After a pause, and then touched his face again, Toda Shirong took out a handkerchief and wiped some fine beads of sweat on his forehead. The weather was obviously not hot.

"What! Please say it again!" Chuemon used honorific words unconsciously, and he couldn't believe it.

National affairs are only farming and warfare. Now the war is about to start, and the people of Uraga are enlisted to supply army meals under the imperial order of Tokugawa Jiaqing. This is an important task for the military. As Uraga's Toda Shiei, he is playing dead with Chuemon here?

It doesn't matter if you and I pretend to be dead. Ask about the 1,700 hungry officers and soldiers of the training team running all the way from Edo. They are all fighting men. If you can't control their food, they will tear you Toda Shirong into eighteen petals, so that your mother will not recognize you.

"The place is full of unsophisticated people. Hearing that the British and Japanese artillery boats had arrived, they had all escaped, and the official had nothing to do." Toda Shirong was trembling when he said this.

The mother's Chuemon has served as a local official for so many years, and he has caught more thieves than the boats running under Nihonbashi. Just looking at Toda Shisei's batch, this servant is lying. It is certain that the people are afraid of Yingyi, and the adults of Edo are also afraid of Yangyi. But no matter how scared, Yingyi would have to go ashore before running away.

Now is the time for spring plowing. It is unknown whether Yingyi will go ashore, but without spring plowing, he will be hungry in the next year. Farmers are indeed less knowledgeable, which shows that being less knowledgeable is not foolish. If you don’t farm, you don’t have food. They know this truth better than anyone else.

What happened that caused the people in Uraga’s neighborhood to flee their homes one after another.

"Hundreds of people in the training team, how to arrange board and lodging tonight!" Tademon is now a diplomat and commander. There is no air traffic controller Toda Shiei what he did. He just wants to hear the result.

"This, this, this..." Of course Toda Shirong couldn't answer.

"Yingxiu is incompetent! Hou Can, you!" The day after tomorrow Xiaobawang came, he directly slashed you to death, which deserved it.

"Hyuga, Hyuga..." Toda Shiei watched Tadaoemon turned and left, and hurriedly stepped forward several steps, grabbing Tadaoemon's sleeve.

After speaking, he took out a Yuza, with two thousand taels written on it. When it comes to a lot of money, fifty thousand taels can buy one old middle school, and two thousand taels can naturally buy one to follow. I am afraid that Toda Shisei has spent 12 thousand taels to run this Uraga practice. Now it is really proud to give such a sum of money to Chuemon.

It's a pity that Toda Shirong was so trash that directly caused the army to stop, and his head was about to be hung on the Japanese bridge for public display. How could the deceased Qian Zhongyou take it?

"Wait for Akashi Hou's disposal!" Chuemon flicked his sleeve and left Toda Shiei.

"Hyuga Mamoru, Hyuga Mamoru, Brother Edogawa..." Toda Shiei still wanted to entangle, and the soldiers on the left and right blocked him.

"My lord, it will be dark in another hour. There is no water and rice, and there is no pot..." Shintaro Terazawa was a little anxious on the side~lightnovelpub.net~ Shintaro Terazawa said it was not bad. It will be dark in more than an hour. On Uraga's side, Toda Shiei is a big waste, and there are dozens of small wastes from the office. They were given a day and a half, and they couldn't even prepare the rice balls. It was useless to rely on them, and they had to rely on themselves for everything.

But Tadaoemon really didn't have anything, besides the more than a thousand soldiers under his hand, there were also MacDonald and a group of sentient beings. Everyone came here as bachelors, and all the nearby people ran away. Even if Chungemon had money, there was no way to buy food and salt from the people.

"Why don't I go to the street and ask?" Shintaro Terazawa was talking about the small street in front of Uraga Masayoshi.

Because Uraga is an important place to control the entry of foreign ships into Edo Bay, there is a fairly developed shipbuilding and fishing industry in the local area. If people live in concentrated communities, there will naturally be shops that provide daily necessities. It's just that Chuemon just saw that all the doors of the shop were closed, fearing that the shop might also run away.

"Never mind, find two people to come and see."
